Omega De Ville Blue Dial Ref. 115.0001 (circa 1970s)

WHY WE CURATED IT:
The De Ville line holds a special place in Omega history. Originally a sub-collection within Seamasters, it diverged into a standalone line by 1967, offering more refinement vs the brand’s increasingly sport-oriented catalogue. Over time, it even became the platform for many Omega firsts, such as their first co-axial escapement and first anti-magnetic central tourbillon. Within dressier De Villes, here’s one that hasn’t been on our radar until now. An absolutely gorgeous, slim and elegant piece with short lugs, a stunning blue dial, white hands and indices with white inlays. Perfectly adept as a daily as well. With a reliable and very serviceable manual-winding Calibre 625. In excellent condition and can easily pass off as a watch far younger than 40+ years old! Movement is serviced and warrantied.

CONDITION:
9/10, with only a sprinkling of light use. Crystal and dial are clean. Markers and hands are pristine. Original signed crown and crystal. New aftermarket strap and buckle.
